one up for steel.

I am taking attentive notes from roubaix.

Low weight crono tubulars are bombproof.
Sub 1400g handbuilt wheelset for under $500.
Steel can allow oned to complete the race.
Treks break, even w/ aluminum steerers.

canti's have been quite common

at Roubaix for years.some guys even ride mod'd cx rigs. Guys for FdJeux were using bikes like that.
